If you know any shady culverts that run under roads and end up in nice ponds and lakes, they hold fish maybe not big, but fish like that cover. We had a few favorites back when I grew up in Worcester.
Similar but same in regarding bad water,when I was a kid I hit almost every brook,stream and river in Walpole for native brookies and the best fishing was behind a gas station on RT 1 and on top of the flowing water was the rainbow slick I'd pull 14-18" Brooke's untill I ran oughta worms.
